EFILive error message w/ pictures

Was scanning the car fine and decided to add the o2 sensor voltage pids, they didn't pick up so I turned off the car and cycled power on the scanner. Now every time I turn the scanner on it detects the wrong controller(used to show the E38 ecm, now it always shows the Flashscan/Autocal picture ...after I select the right one it seems to connect fine, but then when I go to scan I get the error in the second pic below and it will not scan.

This is EFILive v1 7.5. Thanks!

Make sure you've selected a valid pid specific to the ECM you're scanning and validate it by selecting Info>Validate pid.

Thanks just tried but the Info>Validate pid selection is ghosted out and I can't select it.

The controller seems to be working fine seeing as I just did a reflash, but I'm still having the same issues with the scanner.

I reinstalled 7.5 and the error is gone now but when I start monitoring it instantly pauses and will not monitor. I hit the pause button and it says recording but the top of my screen just flashes and goes crazy & will not record or monitor..
